Determine the remainder when 1004! is divided by 2011.
In that case Wilson's theorem says that 2010! is congruent
to minus 1 modulo 2011. The rest is easy.
How does one easily resolve the issue of whether 1005! is +1 or -1?
Why would you need to?
Well, no reason other than to justify a claim such as "The rest is easy"...
At the time I asked that, I thought I saw a shortcut. Alas, I neglected to
write it in the margin.
